KIDNAPED DENTAL MAJOR VIEWS VEGAS PENNILESS
The slot machines and roulette wheels of Las Vegas hold little fascination for Bob Percy, the manacled victim of SC’s latest kidnaping.
As rush chairman for Psi Omega, professional dental fraternity, Percy, 25, w a s kidnaped by the pledge class and loaded onto Western Airlines flight 30 to Las Vegas at 5:15 p.m. yesterday.
The pledges refused to tell him where the plane was destined as they led him aboard at International Airport.
Percy’s fraternity brothers didn’t make plans for the victim to enjoy his sojourn. In preparation for the trip they relieved him of all cash and wrapped him in sweat pants and shirt and bound him with chains. In order that he stay out of trouble, his hands were taped together in praying formation. Except for a sign around his neck which read “This man is completely harmless,” his identity was hidden entirely by the added touch of a space helmet.
Percy, a sophomore in the School of Dentistry, suggested the kidnaping plans himself to the pledges, thinking that it would be a unique trick to play on the fraternity president.
When questioned last night about the kidnaping, Percy’s wife Janet, 361 Cannon Crest, laughed as she told reporters “1 am not going to accept reverse telephone charges from Las Vegas tonight. Not the first time he calls, at least.”
Mrs. Percy said the pledges informed her husband that each of the four holes punched on his plane ticket represented four different stopping places.
‘‘He probably thinks that he is headed for Saudi Arabia by now,” she said jokingly.
Chuck Renn, fraternity secretary and vice president of the Dentistry School, reported that the airlines were most obliging in aiding with their escapade.
“They even took publicity pictures,” he said.
Despite the handicap under which Percy was sent to Las Vegas, Renn said that he wished two people had been sent instead of just one.
“I’d sure like to be in Vegas now,” he sighed.
